It's
bad enough to be humiliated, thirteen-year-old Anastasia Krupnik
thinks. But to be humiliated in front of an audience-and in front
of the world's most glamorous gym teacher-and while wearing a royal
blue gym suit? That's the pits.
Now that she's decided to become a journalist, life's questions
ought to be pretty easy to answer, Anastasia thinks. A journalist,
after all, simply responds to the who, what, when, where, and why
of every situation.
But why are Daphne Bellingham's parents getting a divorce? Is it
Daphne's fault?
And why-WHY-is Anastasia the most physically uncoordinated person
ever to set foot in a junior high gym?
Once again Lois Lowry's wonderful and irrepressible Anastasia has
the answers.
"Anastasia
has become a beloved character in children's books and once again
she doesn't disappoint." -- Booklist, starred review IRA Young
